Which hard case is the best for WD My Passport Slim?
6810
I purchased the "Case Logic QHDC-101 Portable EVA Hard Drive Case - Black" with mine. Although I wouldn't call it a hard case, it's heavy duty fabric and it is quite stiff. Seems to do a great job of protecting the drive when transporting it, and would likely survive most falls. Definitely not crush-proof if that's a concern. It also has an interior pocket with room for two small USB cables, a flash drive, and a headphone adapter while still zipping up nicely.

9.5mm is the thickest you'll be able to use. The highest capacity 9.5mm drives I found so far are Hitachi / HGST 1.5TB drives. Reportedly, there's a WD 2TB coming "soon".

I assume any standard drive would fit. I currently have a 1 TB WD Black in my case.

If you just want good protection, I'd get an OtterBox. If you want the storage too, I don't recommend it because the latch isn't strong and kept popping open.

Not sure. I just plug the WD My Passport Air into the USB port via the cable that comes with the drive, and it works like a charm. I'm really happy with the way it operates (very fast, no fuss, no muss), and the way it looks and feels.

I'm not 100% sure, because I don't have your exact drive, but based on the three WD Passport drives I have, it should fit perfectly!

This drive is actually a bit slimmer compared to the normal wd passport. Overall it feels a lot more solid compared to the plastic drive. Like iPhone 5 vs iPhone 5c. It serves more of an esthetic than functional one. For the same price you can probably get a normal wd passport with higher capacity. Personally I wish that all wd passport had metal casing.

Holds my WD My Passport Essential SE 1 TB drive perfectly, with 1/2" height to spare. I'm not sure how the Ultra differs, but it will fit an object 4-1/2" tall x 3-1/2" wide. Netted side is 1/2" deep, but netting stretches so could accommodate deeper. Opposite side with strap is also 1/2" deep, so netting can stretch into this area.

It is a WD Scorpio Blue (SATA 3 Gb/s): http://www.wdc.com/en/products/Products.asp?DriveID=506But newer revisions of the WD Passport seem to be unsuitable for use without the enclosure.See: http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=307430

Slim is not good if you drop a lot. The slim is good for short drops and protects the edges and back from dings with the premise of keeping the case smaller. If your clumsy with the phone go for the tough armor. (I loved the slim armor btw)

I bought this case for the Seagate Backup Plus Slim 1TB Portable External Hard Drive with Mobile Device Backup USB 3.0 (Black) STDR1000100. It's a perfect fit.

I would go with this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007WFJ0SY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 It's hard cover and it looks more slick

I have an otterboc case and honestly it depends on much stuff you have in the wallet. I have packed mine full so the most I can get is my regular hard case in it.

It is a little chunky width wise. Don't count on it fitting next to something else in the USB cluster.The Samsung extreme is a comparable drive with the thinness you need.

Same thing happened to me recently and looking for a hard drop proof case. Wish someone could rec a case.
